Setup & instructions

Mark a small triangle about 8 to 10 yards a side. Three attackers take a corner each, one defender in the middle. Keep the ball with a maximum of two touches; count consecutive passes. When the defender wins it or it leaves the area, the attacker responsible goes in. Progress to one touch and then a smaller triangle.

Setup time: 1 min

Coaching focus

FROM SESSION PLAN

Coaching points

  • Show for the ball on an angle, never flat behind the defender
  • Soft first touch across the body, ready to pass either way
  • Pass firm and to the back foot so the next pass is quick
  • Adjust your position as the defender moves to keep two options open
  • Head up early: know your next pass before the ball arrives

Common mistakes

  • Standing flat behind the defender, offering no angle
  • A heavy first touch that kills the tempo
  • Passing to the wrong foot, slowing the next pass
  • Ball-watching instead of adjusting position

Progressions & regressions

VARIATIONS

Progressions

  • One touch only
  • Shrink the triangle to tighten the angles
  • Add a second defender for a 3v2 challenge

Regressions

  • Unlimited touches
  • Grow the triangle to open the passing lanes
  • Defender jockeys passively at first
